Carmelo Anthony Says The Knicks Are “Playing to Lose”

It isn’t that Melo is telling lies, it is just the truth has to hurt the Knicks faithful. Here is what he had to say courtesy of ESPN.com

“I think we’re playing to lose rather than playing to win right now,” Anthony said after the Knicks’ 103-99 loss to New Orleans on Sunday. “When you lose games the way we’ve been losing them at home, on the road, you start thinking a lot. You start playing a little tense, you start playing on your heels.”

The Knicks have lost 9 in a row and 7 of those believe it or not have been at The Garden.

You have to wonder if all this losing will prompt Melo to explore his free agency even more this offseason.
